We met for another AltMFA’s Artlicks prep walk in Bermondsey and
discussed the mode of ‘walking’ – to engage and surprise participants,
disrupt the art tourist’s hypnotic following mode by getting people to
be more aware of their surroundings and to be more in the moment. Fritha
suggested a pre-walk crit to present and discuss ideas, and
constructively offer advice or brainstorm as to which site fits best,
how pieces flow together – scheduled for next Monday, 22 September.
Related, we thought about the ‘finding’ and ‘hiding’ and having another
AltMFA session looking at overall concepts to do with walking practices, the weather, tours as practice. There is so much room for experimentation and sit specific work. (notes Sadie Edginton)
